Netflix Favorites Review | July & August





It is time for another Netflix Favorites of the month. Well, actually it is kind of two months in one favorites post.
So some of the movies I'm going to talk about today are probably going to be added to my favorite movies/series of all time list. I'm so glad I discovered these movies, some of them are very well know and popular, but there are two of them that I never heard anyone talk about ever.

So I hope you all like the post and let's get started, shall we?



1. Pulp Fiction 

This movie is quite popular, specially on the tumblr community. I've always seen a lot of images of this movie being rebloged and I thought about checking the movie out. So I went on Netflix to see if it was there and well it was. The movie has been in my Netflix List for about 2 months until I decided to watch it. 

I wasn't expecting the movie to be the way it was. It was kind of confusing at first, when I noticed that the movie had scenes that were in different orders. But, when I finished it I thought the movie was incredible. This method of making the movie kind of backwards made me like it alot better, I thought it was genius.

I can't tell exactly what the movie is about. Not becuase I'm afraid to spoil the film for you guys, but because I really don't know what the movie is about. I know that it is about these two hitmen, and there is a lot of action, guns and crimes. Well, it is not a very calm type of movie, you have to enjoy action movies I think, to really like it. 

And one more thing...Tim Roth appears in the movie. I was so happy to sse him act in another movie, I only saw him in Lie To Me. I love that show, I still feel sad that it was canceled in mid season.



2. Looper

This movie is a recent watch for me. I saw it last week and I loved it. Is really my type of movie. It deals with future, time traveling and technology. I kind of got the Inception and Interstellar feels from it. If you liked these two movies, you should totally watch Looper.

The main reason I watch this movie is kind of funny and ridiculous. It was because of the main actor, Joseph Gordon-Levitt. I don't know way, but I really like all his movies. Now that I think about it he's kind of my celebrity crush. I loved all the movies I've watched with him in it, so I figured that I would enjoy this one, too. And I was right.

You should totally see the movie if you like futuristic/ sci fi  and action movies or if you just have a crush of one of the actors, because that's totally fine, too. Almost forgot... Bruce Willis is in the movie. Another great reason you should watch it.


3. Don't Trust The B in Apartment 23

You have to watch this show. It is so funny and a very easy watch. I've always seen this show in the comedy section on Netflix, but I don't know why I never picked and watched it before. Now that I have, and I'm glad I did, I love it.

But I'm sad to tell you guys that the show was canceled three years ago, so there is only 2 seasons. I don't mind watching a show that was canceled, but if you have, like many of my friends, you don't need to watch it. And if you are one of those people that don't mind watching canceled series, you should check it out.

Well I had 3 main reasons I watched this show, first one being that I was looking for a girly / fashion type of movie set in NY. Second one, is that one of the main characters is Krysten Ritter. If you don't know she is, she actually is in one of my favorite movies of all time...Confessions of a Shopaholic.

And third reason being very simple, I was just looking for something light and funny to watch. I had just finished the second season of The Blacklist on Netflix so I needed just a simple series to take my focus away from the previous show. 

Well it is very awesome. It is about this girl that moves to NY and is looking for an apartment. So she finds one with a very nice room mate, but it turns out that the room mate is a total b*tch and is just trying to steal her money. 

The story line might not interest everyone, but you have to give it a try and watch the first episode. I promise you, you'll not stop watching the show until is over.

4. Psycho

I don't know if I have talked about this movie in other post before, I was very confused about that so I just decided to talked about again even if I had already. So sorry if I did write a post about it and you have to read another one again. You can just skip to the next review if you want to.

So this movie was incredible. I love movies that have this shady feel about it and specially if it is black and white. And the acting was so good. If you like old movies, that are black and white, and thrillers you should totaly watch this one... it is actually kind of a classic.

And if you like Bates Motel, you will definetly like this movie. Because Bates Motel was based on this movie, well actually more the character Norman. But they are very similar in many ways, but Psycho is a lot more scary. But be sure to watch it, if you enjoy the TV show, you won't regreat it...it is awesome.


5. Brick 

Well, again I watched a movie because of the actor. Yes, you got it right, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in this movie. But if you know me a little, you know that I would never put a movie on my favorites post review if I really did not like it. 

I really enjoyed this movie. It is kind of fast paced, but it not that type of movie that runs and it does not make sense. It actually develops quite nicely. The mystery is very good and it has a twist that you don't expect. 

The movie is about a high school guy that receives a call from his ex-girlfriend asking for help. He wants to help her, but them she turns up dead. And he is determined to find her killer and get revenge. But he knows that the suspects that are involved are popular high schoolers and drug dealers, so it is going to be a lot more challenging and dangerous than he thinks. 

It might be a simple and very common story line, but I promise you it is not. It is very good and if you have free time you should totaly check it out.




So I hope you all liked this post and that you are having a great week.
